CONTINUOUS COMMISSIONING OF SALT LAKE COMMUNITY COLLEGE SOUTH CITY CAMPUS

The state of Utah's Department of Natural Resources funded two projects in Salt Lake City to demonstrate the feasibility of the continuous commissioning® (CC®)* process. The two sites selected were a modem state building, the Matheson Courthouse [1], and a very old building, the South City campus of Salt Lake Community College. This article describes the measures and savings results from the CC® process at the community college. The energy savings amounted to 15 percent of the annual utility bill. While most of the savings were attributed to CC, part was attributed to the on-site facility operators who implemented measures over and above those recommended by the CC engineers. It was an exciting team effort and a good example of the savings that can be achieved by CC engineers working closely with a good facility operations staff.
